INPOR7ANCE OF THE PERSIAN
HOTHER-IN.LdW.

The young wife does not Immediately
assume the responsibilities of her posi-
ton. Carefully tended MS q bride for
the first year Of her welded life, she
willingly remains under the tutelage of
her mother-in-law, if she have one, or
If she be the '.anghter of widow her
mother usually accompanies her to her
new establishment. Mothers.in.law
have better time in Persia than in
some other countries. There they are
regarded rs the natural guardians of
the inexperienced bride and the proper
care-takers of the young mother and
her infant offspring. From the mother
in-law are learned the arts of house,
keeping. Under her eyes all purchases
are made from the huckster or female
peddler, for visit to the bazaar by q
young wife before she has blessed her
husband with children would be con-
sidered scandal among the upper,
middle, or trndesman class. Only
among the very poor or the villagers
does the young wife, save on ceremonial
occasions, leave the shadow of her hus.
bands roof-tree during the first year of
her marriage.
But the first year of wifehood has
passed away, and relatives and friends
have been summoned to celebrate the
happy birth ola son or daughter. If the
former, then indeed is the position of
the wife happy one. She receives
the congratulations of her friends and
acquaintance and holds high festival.
Her husband dignities her by the title
of Mother of Hassan," or whatever the
little ones name may be, and from that
day her own name is no longer used.
If she issonly blessed with q daughter,
still she is not cursed with sterility,
that terror of the Oriental woman; and
she may hope that heaven may yet
bless her with son.
Consulted in all matters, the Persian
wife is her husbands trusted confidant
and counselor. "But she is yelled, the
poor thing, closely veiled!" exclaims
the plying Englishwoman. Yes, she
is yelled. And loath she would be to
part with what she looks on as distinc-
ton and privilege. To her the veil is
the badge of modesty and the token of
responsibility.
And has she any accomplishments,
any education, or is she merely the
mother of the children? These ques-
tions are easily answered. Many of the
Persian middle-class women are highly
educated, according to Oriental ideas.
They read and often write poetry: they
sing and play, as q rule, we'll, and are
mistresses of all the arts. of plain and
fancy needlework; cooking is second
nature to them; pastry-making and con-
fectionery are among their pleasures.
The accomplishments of the poor ones
are naturally of more useful kind.
They are good cooks and bread bakers,
they make the clothes of the entire
household; they often are able to add
largely to the daily income by their
knowledge of some business or trade,
and none of them are idle.-St. James
Gazette.

Gazette's KohaIa Letter.

EDITOR GAzETTE:-But little has been 90.
ing on of late in this district, unless an ex-
ception be made of the unusual preparations
that are going on for the coming elections.
Indeed, so many familiar faces have moved
and are about to move away from the dis
trict, either temporarily or permanently, that
we feel quite deserted. By count there will
have moved away, within the last four or five
weeks, by the time this reaches you, eight
adults permanently, two for absence of a year
or more, and at least four for an absence OF
a few weeks.
At a mass meeting called last Saturday af-
ternoon, there was large turnout of Portu-
guese and other whites, but very slim at
tendance, possibly twenty, of natives. This,
of course, was contrary TO what was wanted.
Nevertheless, the various candidates for politI-
cal honors were called out to speak for them
selves, and MIR. John Mcguire first took the
floor amidst loud applause which was fire.
quently repeated as he made his maiden ad-
dress to any audience.
The place sought him, and not he the place.
We hope to carry him at the coming cleo
ton. He was followed by four self-noml-
mated candidates, Messrs. Kekipi, Kahooka-
no, Sr. and Jr., Kaohi, one other having with
drawn from the contest, by request, in favor
of Mcguire Mr.. Keklpi was the only one of
these latter who spoke unqualiiedly in sup
port of the new Constitution. The others
protested to think well of it, but wished to
make what they considered improvements
on it.
The Inspectors of Election, at their last
meeting, had list of over $50 names. and
there were supposed to be not over 80 or 200
voters remaining IN the district to be en-
rolled. No pains has been spared, by the
sending of special agents throughout the
district several times, to have all possible
voters take the oath.

roads.

Mr.. E. d. Preston, of the United States
Coast Survey, who has been in these Islands
for some months, on leave of absence, making
latitude observations for the Hawaiian Gov
the steamer Australia on the Both inst. The
work for which he was engaged by this
Government has all been satisfactorily execu-
ted. Mr.. Preston was employed chiefly because
it was less expensive to pay his salary than to
buy the necessary instruments, as the United
States service would not lend the instruments
without being in charge of one of its own
men. Now that the exact latitude has been
arranged for, the sun may go wrong-Hawaii
will still be on time.
